Rena and Lucius cuddled next to one another on a two-person sofa the entire time they were in the waiting area. The Thunder King stood silently at the door, watching over everything happening in the room.
Lucius made no moves that would have set the man off in any way. Not only for himself, but also for the safety of his family. Kalliope looked over them in a blend of happiness and jealousy which Lucius had gotten used to over the past few months. However, since they had returned from the work study, he had yet to sit down and discuss with her what Rena had told him.
They needed to talk about it, but time was never really on their side for much of it. Things kept getting in the way. Then they found out about the baby and almost everything else fell to the wayside.
"Kalliope."
"Yes?" The woman sat up with her ears and tail at complete attention. She was not expecting to hear Lucius call out for her.
